Happy Friday! I hope everyone had a wonderful July 4th holiday – clearly our neighborhood knows how to celebrate! As expected, the market is a bit slow after the holiday – but there are 7 new listings we’re happy to share with you – and perhaps even more interesting….we have 8 price reductions in the past week. If you’ve been looking for the right Stapleton home, but have been discouraged by stiff buyer competition, now is the perfect time to secure a home before the school year AND get a great value!

Disclaimer: Our Friday real estate updates are meant to be a “roundup” type post where we discuss all listings in Stapleton, not just our own. It’s our way of making sure we follow the market closely and we share it with the Scoop readers because we know many of you like to track real estate in the area as well. Many of the listings in these posts are not our company’s listings and we wanted to mention that here to make sure it’s clear. Thanks for reading the Scoop!
